#Support
OpenHive is self-hosted software: you own your instance, your data and your sending reputation. Support is self-serve first, with help available when you get stuck.
#Search the docs
- On your instance:
/docshas search across every guide. - From an AI assistant connected over MCP: ask it to "search the OpenHive docs for …" (the
search_docstool). - In the dashboard: press ⌘J and ask the assistant.
#Diagnose it yourself
| Symptom | Where to look |
|---|---|
| Emails not sending | Settings → Email → Outbox shows every message and its error |
| A send seems stuck | Post → Send report; sends resume automatically after warmup caps or retries |
| Webhook not received | Settings → Webhooks → endpoint → delivery log (retry any attempt manually) |
| Automation didn't fire | Automation → Journeys shows each subscriber's path and step results |
| Something errored | Settings → Audit log, and npx wrangler tail for live logs |
| Subscriber can't sign up | Their email may be disposable/invalid or suppressed; check the subscriber page |
